it's all about personal preference. i don't think anyone's opinion should be able to sway you. you really can't go wrong with either, unless you prefer the styling on the camaro over the trans am or vice versa i would get the one you find a better deal on.

I always have a preference for the one that I don't currently have. It's a personal thing, but I would have to say TA this month.

I have had 3 Camaros and 3 TA's and my last 3 have been the TA WS6's. I like the styling all around better on the WS6's and they seem to have been a tick faster than my friends SS's but not much so if its performance you are asking about, they are not different. Same car, different looks

Those 02's are 35th Annivsery LE models...

Also...your the one who is buying the car. So buy what you like. And as far as rims, CCW's hands down

I was going to buy a black trans am, but then i saw a 02 SS and bought that instead...they are all the same, just get the one you find a better deal on and be smart about it

IMO for aggressive looks and styling definately the t/a but the ss still looks mean and simple...or go get a z28 for less and mod the **** out of it and every 16/yr kid with one will **** his pants

SS's are everywhere around here too. Not many WS6s. Mine is the only NBM I have seen in the area. I prefer the WS6 over the SS and I have had both. But, you should be able to get a better deal on an SS. If I were you I would get the one that is the best deal for the money. Both are great cars. You can't go wrong either way.

trans am's are like the guys that wear hollister shirts and have big water buffed arms that LOOK like they could kick your *** but are meh at best, while Camaro's are classy guys that know MMA but dont show it till your knocked out from out of no where
